Nope, almost every MP on both sides has mentioned the rise in racist attacks.

A fair few MPs have mentioned a noticable rise in racism.

It can only be a rise if it is measured against something. Otherwise it is just a racist incident and we get plenty of these out of 60 odd million people

[Kizzy]

I agree, the commons right this moment are discussing the rise in racism, fueled directly by the leave campaign, let's not gloss over this.
Disclaimer: That is not by any means all leave voters are/were or will be racist.

[the truth]

labour created all of this

[Christmas Dynasnow]

Iv just been to Tesco in a small Angus town and I can report no racist incidents. I did see several eastern Europeans and I watched them closely.

It was after continuous abuse from a white man telling him to Speak English and go back to his country on the card which he posted through the letterbox, believing the house belonged to the racist.

And I'd "comfort" her so I would hopefully get a "reward."

Yes I've made this thread a whole lot more creepy.

Funnily enough it's not creepy, white people do get rewards for not being racist like many of their white peers.

I just saw a large combine harvestor

This brexit has caused a rise in farm machinery.


When will the madnes end



The Leave camp better reap what they have sowed

[Christmas Dynasnow]

We assume that racism must be white britishBritish led

In itself a lazy racist thought

[Christmas Dynasnow]

The thread title should be changed immediately

There I'd NO EVIDENCE that racism is 'on the rise' due to the result

You may as well attribute it to Natalie's exit on BB

No evidence of a rise

No evidence that random incidents are because of the result


All we have are incidents

And hysterical hyperbole

There is evidence of a rise, the House of Commons have discussed it, there's a whole album of screenshots and photos of it. Do on deny there is a rise in racism, we shouldn't just shrug this off, to do so is dangerous. Both the leave and remain side are disgusted by the rise of racial abuse, this isn't the fault of either side, but we must accept its a problem.

There is No Evidence of a rise

What parameters are you measuring it agains t precisely?


There have been un connected incidents


Please post evidence of a rise showing a rise against actual data

Please post evidence that incidents are a direct result of the referendum

that is reports of racist incidents and not evidence of a rise in racism. It is also not evidence that the incidents were because of the referendum.

is it just another "coincidence" like the drop in the economy? Totally unrelated nothing to do with Brexit .

Corellation is perfectly acceptable as evidence, especially when the statement isn't concrete. The thread title doesn't say "Racism on the rise BECAUSE OF referendum", just "following", which leaves people free to draw their own conclusions... whether that be the obvius conclusion that it is related, or the head-in-the-sand fantasy conclusion that it has nothing to do with it and is related to something else like cat pheromones or maybe moon phases.

It reminds me of of the general "is on the rise" statements by people when really what they mean is that you can now get news media 24 hours, in your pocket, on 5 devises at home etc when 20 years ago you got the news at 6 and 9 on 2 channels

same with "freak weather"
